American Culinary Federation is a professional, nonprofit organization for chefs and cooks. The federation was founded in 1929 by three chefs organizations that include the Soci t Culinaire Philanthropique, Vatel Club and Chefs Association of America. The organization sanctions domestic culinary competitions, and oversees international competitions that take place in the United States. ACF culinary competitions were founded on the principle of education, and the sharing of culinary techniques and developments. ACF shares these ideas through videos, cookbooks and techniques manuals, such as The Art and Science of Culinary Preparation, a 600-page standard reference book of the culinary industry. ACF organizes various seminars and workshops at national conventions and regional conferences to upgrade the skills and knowledge of its members. Its members are entitled to receive official monthly journals, the National Culinary Review and Center of the Plate. ACF is headquartered in St. Augustine, Fla.
